Advancing a Digital Ecosystem for Health Equity. In partnership with information technology teams, and with funding support from Wellstar Foundation, WCHE implemented Wellstar Find Help, a system-wide digital tool connecting patients to local resources for food, transportation, housing, and other resources. Wellstar Find Help enables Wellstar to address social determinants of health, the non-medical factors influencing the health and wellbeing of patients and community members. Additionally, WCHE team members began development and socialization of an “Equity Dashboard”. The dashboard is comprised of digital demographic information intended to guide system-wide decision-making for serving patients from traditionally medically underserved communities.

The site translates into multiple languages to best serve our communities.
